[1.16] The GONG+ Network

J. W. Leibacher (National Solar Observatory), GONG Project Team

The Global Oscillation Network Group obtains helioseismic
data from a six-station network with an overall duty cycle
of \approx 90% and will continue observing for a full
solar cycle. The initial, 2562 rectangular pixel
detectors are being replaced with 10242 square pixel
ones, to enable high quality, continuous local
helioseismology and probing closer to the surface. The GONG+
system will also provide continuous magnetograms, and offers
the possibility of observing with a cadence as short as 16
seconds. We will present results from the prototype GONG+
instrument demonstrating its capabilities.

The Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG) project is
supported by the National Science Foundation and operates in
collaboration with the Big Bear Solar Observatory, High
Altitude Observatory, Learmonth Solar Observatory, Udaipur
Solar Observatory, Instituto de Astrof\'{i}sico de
Canarias, and Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory.
